Hobokense Polder in Antwerp

A very nice park with nice passages and well maintained nature , recommend at 100%

Was nice and calm place we love it

Nice park to see nature..

Very nice to walk, routes well indicated. There are areas with cows grazing so they can be in the way, fun. There are a couple of ponds where its easy to spot birds and mosquitoes.

Nice place for a walk in nature

Not accessible for wheelchairs although it was published.

Best experience ever . Take all your trash back home with ya and keep this place as pristine as it is

Good for a walk along the river the Schelde or in the nature reserve

Amazing nature! Very large domain, galloway cows grazing, a view on the Scheldt, its all there!

Nice park in the south of Antwerp (maybe 20min from the city center). Nice lake in the middle with a dedicated space to take some nice pictures of the different birds. Be careful the ground might be really muddy so better check the weather forecast.

Lovely walk, calm in winter

A smallish nature area just outside Antwerp city centre, located along the river. Plenty of public parking at the various entry points. It take about two hours to walk the trails, in 2 -3 tours. A nice afternoon or morning out. No amenities.

Very nice nature reserve close by the city.Very beautiful and varying sceneries can be enjoyed here.

Nature reserve just a stone throw away from Antwerpen city center

10/10 would walk again

Looved this place. Saw it on the map and kept postponing visiting it, once I got there I kind of regrettee going, but as I went deeper it got better. We even saw the cows. But the best view was yet to come. The schelde river was amazing. Good place to relax and for a light hike. Still havent seen all of it though. Cannot wait to go back

Great place for a walk

Beautiful piece of wild nature. It is a real find, as you would not expect it so close to the city. The polder has a vastness of 170 ha. You can choose to follow several walking trails that in all are about 9 km long. The ground is fairly easy to walk on, but do wear good shoes, as it can be slippery in some places. The most surprising part are the animals that walk freely over the terrain. This is also a great place to walk your dog. The parking spots are limited, but theres enough space in the adjacent streets. The nature reserve is open 24/7.

Love the cows!

This is a nice place to spend some time in the nature. Eve though this forest lies between the river and the industrial area it is still the best place for a walk with kids

The small lake was dried when we visited the area. But it was quite nice place for walking and enjoying the nature.

Not very wide but still a beautiful natural space to spend a few hours

Very clean and smart. Food very good. Staff polite. Plenty of car parking area.

Great place near the city for a peaceful walk.

A quiet haven squeezed between Schelde and railway. Accessible via train. Well laid out with nice explanations on the nature surrounding you.

Nice and still a bit unknown in Antwerpen, only thing Id like to see is more documentation, such as animals living

Nice place for a walk... A little muddy after rainy days, but otherwise, very attractive...

Lovely walk close by the city

Nice piece of nature for being so close to the city. Can feel somewhat crowded during weekends.

Interesting piece of nature close to Antwerp. Created with the sand they dug up when creating the highway around Antwerp. The first plan was to build houses there, but later when policy changed they decide to keep it as a nature park.We went there in winter so there was nobody around (it was raining as well), but we had a good experience

Exceptional place full of nature

Very nice it just has 2 draw backs ... 1 it really should be bigger. 2 because of the industry around it you can almost not escape the busy city. But it is beautiful and good maintained.

Nice place for a nature walk, but too many dogs on the loose and doing there dirt all around :(

Beautiful walks and friendly people.. Fresh air! Go get some!

Nice for a 1-2 h walk between birds and free walking cows next to the Schelde. There are some banks on the riverside (west), perfect to warm up in the sun (in the afternoon)

Great to walk, breathe fresh air, and see natural nature

Good for relaxing walks in nature. Quite big and easy to get lost.

Nice place to escape the busyness of the city... Be aware of the cows and the stuff they leave behind! 😂

Nice easy trails in a natural setting. Can be a bit muddy in places

Nice walking paths. Well maintained by Natuurpunt.

Quiet place to go. Nice walking area.

Very quiet. While walking around, you can see cows, frogs, ducks, etc. Just be careful to not and remember your way. It might take you some time to get out ;)

This is a very large nature reserve aka 170 hectare big! It lies between the river the Schelde, Hoboken village & in the north the petroleum companies like BP Belgium & Q8! You can walk, go there with your bike, etc. There are many trees, pools with frogs & many birds too. There are even areas with grazing sheep!!! A lovely green nature preserve that is worth visiting! A must!

Nice cosy park, but keep your doos on the leash ;)

lovely area to walk around

Great place to walk with or without dog 😀

Great place to walk, even with a dog, or to do some sport. Close to the city yet its very peaceful.

Some real wild bush not so far from the city center. A bush with very different sceneries.

One of the few nature space in Antwerp. Great to get away from the city feeling

Really nice place, you could wander around for quite some time here. Bring the kids, even dogs. Beware of ticks however.
